    Pls. forgive the slightly off-topic nature of the question, but what would
    be the earth's magnitude value as viewed from a geosynchronous orbit?
    
    More precisely, can someone point me to where I can get information on this
    question:
    How many photons per second would be captured from the earth with a given
    aperture, in a given slice of the visible/IR band, when using a given FOV?
    Thanks.
